The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

Feel like a budding wizard exploring a friendly magical academy, solving puzzles and casting spells at your own pace, with a focus on creativity and cooperation rather than harsh difficulty.

What players say

Players find the game repetitive and grindy, with slow progression and too few biomes. Some enjoy the core idea but say achievements require dozens of runs, and the overall feel is like an unfinished beta.
